Not sure what to do to transfer my website from my ex-boyfriend’s server, that hosts my website.
-
Hi, I built a website using WP, but my ex-boyfriend set it up for me on his server and also bought the domain name for me. When we broke up he said that I should make a new website and them he can give me a transfer code for the domain. However, I want to know if there’s a way to transfer over my website to me without losing all the content and formatting that I’ve constructed already? Any suggestions or what to research on the web about this would be helpful, I’m quite a newbie at websites. Thanks.

If the site is still working and you can log in to the admin, just go get a plugin like https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/ or https://wordpress.org/plugins/all-in-one-wp-migration/
There’s also moving a site manually. You’ll need access to the files on the server and the database. Take a look here:

Finally, if the files are gone you might be able to salvage some content from archive.org :( Hopefully you’ll have better luck than that!
